See if you can get on a cancellation list with your rheumatologist. perhaps your meds will work for both RA and RSD, since they are both auto-immune disorders... That would be cool....
good luck, Sandy

Thanks Sandy! I'm on a waiting list but the RSD medicines aren't working on the RA at all... and wouldn't ya know it. We've gone months without rain in Florida and now for 3 days it's been blowing rain on and off.. wunnerful! Good luck with your WC case. I also began my RSD saga from a job related injury (I was a paralegal in a wc defense law firm of all things!) and my case was in litigation for 7 years! It wasn't the diagnosis they were disputing, it was the value of the claim. sigh. Social Security disability only took 2 years.. they were speed demons compared to the Florida Comp courts! Oh well, that's ancient history now. My hopes and prayers are with you for a speedy resolution of your claim. The stress is definitely not good for your RSD!!
Best Wishes.... Sharee
